Born in Krujë, Suma was ordained a priest in the Order of Friars Minor. On 27 May 1647, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Innocent X as Bishop of Sapë. On 2 June 1647, he was consecrated bishop by Pier Luigi Carafa, Cardinal-Priest of Santi Silvestro e Martino ai Monti, with Ranuccio Scotti Douglas, Bishop of Borgo San Donnino, and Alessandro Vittrici, Bishop of Alatri, serving as co-consecrators.
